Assuming this was some kind of glitch but I was scrolling around my screen and saw a lock blinking at me amongst my buildings, click, and I have Penelope! Pleasant surprise. Anyone else have any surprise characters unlock?

I really wish TinyCo had separate mystery boxes for premium characters and outfits, instead of lumping them in with previously-unlockable content. The Adorables box just appeared, containing at least two previously clam-only characters and outfits
I had no intention of getting in the first place.

For me, the first ‘best of’ box was almost entirely costumes, which I never pay clams for. The second box was entirely new characters. When I get literally one more clam, I’ll be able to get Pac Man too and close out that box.

BUT i just realized that if TinyCo starts a new event later this week and loads the screen with tasks, I might actually have too many open quests, given that I currently have 5 or 6 character questlines still open. (Can’t use the dart-earning characters until I have all the tokens needed. I think I can get whatsiname too, but it will really depend on luck/dropped tokens.)

Does anyone know what the max number of open questlines is before it fails to allow new ones to trigger?

It varies in our games but at times when Bunny has tested it she’s been unable get new Tasks with 11 already open, but another time she had 15 before no more dropped. I’ve a few building up also, hopefully get some cleared before the next even gets too busy

I was able to skip this box by default since I earned or got all these during their times. 😀

The other box though… Can someone clue me in as to where Fat Brian came from originally? I can’t seem to find him on the site search… My GF and I both missed him somehow. Astronaut Peter was a super plus after his (rigged?) Box originally. 🙂

Read in another post & like others, had not unlocked Billy Finn during the original event but had the Argo Ship. It was in my inventory, so I placed it & nothing happened. No unlocked lock. So I closed out the game & restarted it… there he was. Thanks to Russian Tigger & Bunny for all you do for this site!

I didn’t open the mystery box yet, but when i looked through my town, i saw a character with an unlocked golden lock above its head today..and it was Billy Finn…weird! So I got Billy Finn free somehow.
I was curious if this has happened to anybody else?!?

I ended up getting the only 2 characters left in my game, Heavy Flo and Big Bad Brian… for a grand total of 168 characters (with no cash spent)! still crossing my fingers for Kaplan

The Beasts of mystery box Daggermouth 150 clams yes, just for the chance at him no! The Best Of mystery box Cheerleader Bonnie 150 clams yes for sure I would but just for the chance at her nooooo! Just put them up for sale and let people buy what they want. No mystery there.

I already had all of these characters and costumes, so nothing in this for me. When I opened my game, I saw mention of another box. So I went to the store and tried to find it. I went through everything trying to find it. When I couldn’t – that’s when I realised “I probably already have them all then”. Now looking at the list, I do have them all. If you already have everything from a box, they should make it so that the message does not appear in your game and then confuse you. 🤔

150 Clams for a character is cheaper than their typical costs, but it’s still $6 for those that have no use other than stashing in Tan Lines. They should try 50 Clams per and see if they don’t come out better.
